For this moment, just know that Laura and Euna are sisters, wives, daughters. Euna is also a mother. This week, you will hear from their families, their muzzles removed by the US State Department that has had little success up until this point in negotiating their release. They now agree that you should know what’s going on. You will hear stories of these two women as compassionate, intrepid, committed journalists, and more importantly, as caring, thoughtful, and passionate people. No doubt, many of the dozens of other reporters around the world – whose names we don’t even know – have the same sorts of family situations, personalities, and passions.
